Considering galaxies as self - gravitating systems of many collisionless particles allows to use methods of statistical mechanics inferring the distribution function of these stellar systems. Actually, the long range nature of the…
We consider a nearly collisionless plasma consisting of a species of `test particles' in 1D-1V, stirred by an externally imposed stochastic electric field. The mean effect on the particle distribution function is stochastic heating.…
We propose a physical model for nonlinear stochastic biasing of one-point statistics resulting from the formation epoch distribution of dark halos. In contrast to previous works on the basis of extensive numerical simulations, our model…
We develop models of two-component spherical galaxies to establish scaling relations linking the properties of spheroids at $z=0$ (total stellar masses, effective radii $R_e$ and velocity dispersions within $R_e$) to the properties of their…
We study the formation of the Milky Way's halo in a $\Lambda$CDM cosmology by scaling down a high resolution simulation of the formation of a cluster of galaxies. We determine how much phase-space substructure is left over from the objects…
We study analytically the coarse and fine-grained distribution function established by the self-similar infall of collisionless matter. We find this function explicitly for isotropic and spherically symmetric systems in terms of…
We use the hydrodynamical EAGLE simulation to study the magnitude and origin of the scatter in the stellar mass - halo mass relation for central galaxies. We separate cause and effect by correlating stellar masses in the baryonic simulation…
We study the distribution function (DF) of dark matter particles in haloes of mass range 10^{14}--10^{15}\Msun. In the numerical part of this work we measure the DF for a sample of relaxed haloes formed in the simulation of a standard…
It has been suggested that the central stellar velocity dispersion of galaxies can trace dark matter halo mass directly. We test this hypothesis using a complete spectroscopic sample of isolated galaxies surrounded by faint satellite…
We use a hybrid observational/theoretical approach to study the relation between galaxy kinematics and the derived stellar and halo masses of galaxies up to z=3 as a function of stellar mass, redshift and morphology. Our observational…
We describe a simple model which explains the qualitative and (approximate) quantitative features of the distribution of orbital velocities of merging pairs of dark matter halos. Our model considers a primary dark matter halo as a perturber…
Cosmological models in which dark matter consists of cold elementary particles predict that the dark halo population should extend to masses many orders of magnitude below those at which galaxies can form. Here we report a cosmological…
The smallest dark matter haloes are the first objects to form in the hierarchical structure formation of cold dark matter (CDM) cosmology and are expected to be the densest and most fundamental building blocks of CDM structures in our…
To better understand the collisionless dark matter flow on different scales, statistical theory involving kinematic and dynamic relations must be developed for different types of flow, e.g. incompressible, constant divergence, and…
In this paper, we analyse in detail the mass-accretion histories and structural properties of dark haloes in high-resolution N-body simulations. Modeling the density distribution in individual haloes with the NFW profile, we find, for all…
Small scale challenges suggest some missing pieces in our understanding of dark matter. A cascade theory for dark matter is proposed to provide extra insights, similar to the cascade phenomenon in hydrodynamic turbulence. The kinetic energy…
We propose a solution of the cusp problem in framework of the standard $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. To do this we describe the linear and nonlinear periods of halo formation by the entropy function of dark matter particles. This approach allows…
In this paper, we present the density, \rho, velocity dispersion, \sigma, and \rho/\sigma^3 profiles of isotropic systems which have the energy distribution, N(E)\propto[\exp(\phi_0-E)-1], derived in Paper I. This distribution, dubbed…
We use large N-body simulations of dissipationless gravitational clustering in cold dark matter (CDM) cosmologies to study whether the properties of dark matter halos are affected by their environment. We look for correlations between the…
Motivated by observations that suggest the presence of extremely massive clusters at uncomfortably high redshifts for the standard cosmological model to explain, we develop a theoretical framework for the study of the most massive haloes,…
